Arggh!! I hadn't used my Voyage in a while; I like the real buttons on the Oasis #1 (un-numbered, actually). But all this talk made me pull out the Voyage. It downloaded 7-8 new books, got an update to the latest (for it) firmware, and let me read a novella and a full book. Oh, but the left side haptic buttons didn't work. Only the right side buttons.
And now it's gone wonky, required a long-press on the power button to restart it (it wouldn't restart when the prompt asked "Cancel Restart ScreenOff", though it would turn the screen off). It went through the restart, but wouldn't open when it was finished.
As I plugged it in to let it rest and recharge, before again trying to get it off the "swipe to unlock" screen ..... I noticed that the left side of the glass is high and out of its socket. I can press it down and it returns to a 1/16" high.
Can I safely let it be while I order a new battery and attempt to replace it? Or is it likely to catch fire Real Soon Now? Is it safe??
[ My nephew notice my Mom's Voyage, newer than mine, with an enlarged battery around Aug 20, and removed it and plunged it into a sand bucket for safety. It must have been more enlarged than this, I think, for him to notice it. But she hadn't shelved it for 2-3 years, like I did while using the Oasis 1 instead.)
